What's the story

Kolkata Knight Riders secured a 5-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad to book themselves a place in the playoffs. The Knights are now placed third courtesy of their bowlers who derailed SRH's innings in the last 30 deliveries. KKR batsmen made a light work of the target and chased it with 2 balls to spare. Here are the best reactions from Twitter.

Are SRH losing momentum?

8 wickets in 9 matches this season for Bhuvneshwar Kumar. He picked 49 wickets in the last two seasons...vice captain’s fitness and wicket-taking form a slight concern for #SRH. #IPL

Carlos Brathwaite is yet to prove his worth

Every time I see Carlos Brathwaite, I remember two comments about him: 1. ‘Remember the name!’ - Ian Bishop 2. ‘Looks like Tarzan, bowls like Jane’ - Dirk Nannes 😁
